Meet Tanya & Brian

We've spent years helping apparel decorators and print shops grow.

We've also watched customer expectations change.

Today's customers want:

  • smaller quantities
  • full-color graphics
  • faster turnaround
  • one-offs
  • personalization
  • on-demand production

Many screen printers tell us:

"I don't want to burn screens for 12 shirts anymore."

We built Kolormatrix to help shops add DTF without feeling like they need to reinvent everything.
